The Murder of Debbie Ann Hutchinson (Last Seen April 2017 | Sydney, Nova Scotia)
from The Canadian Gothic · host CanadianGothic / Curiouscast
In April 2017, 59-year-old Debbie Ann Hutchinson vanished from Sydney, Nova Scotia. Days later, her white Kia Magentis was found burning in a wooded area not far from her home. In this episode, we are joined by Debbie’s estranged daughter, Colette Deveaux to discuss her mother’s unsolved homicide, and the complicated grief that followed. Collette shares what it is like to mourn a parent while also carrying painful memories from childhood, and how Debbie’s murder forced her into an impossible emotional position: seeking justice for her mother while still reckoning with trauma caused by that same relationship.
